ABOUT ME

I love meeting new people who have different cultural backgrounds. It is always fun to learn cultural differences and know new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because it truly enriches my travel experiences.

By wandering around cities and visiting only tourist attractions, you never discover some aspects of culture and people living there. Interacting with new people and sharing thoughts and cultural differences is a lot more fun and interesting for me.

Unfortunately, I am not able to host for now, but might be able to hang out if my work is not so busy.
